Then the topic would be “the WoW devs suck at their jobs” and not “housing is somehow taking dev time away from [more important parts of game]”
I don’t agree, but people flagging your post is childish.
things are mutual , they both need dev time.
i get it that some people want housing and i dont have a probelm with it , however there are people not interseted in it and im one of them.
It really is just another reason why this community is terrible. Like “How dare you have a different opinion.”
I’d say it’s not so much “I disagree so Imma flag you” so much as it is “oh look, another rant with no constuctive feedback or suggestions for improvement, time to get to flagging”
because there isnt really a problem cited. it is a discussion. people just flag what they dont like, its the same thing with downvotes on reddit.
The game is all about dungeons, raids and PvP. Not house making. Blizz has to make a separate game for it.
Game’s Final Boss is the Mythic Raid Boss. What does Housing have to do with killing the Final Boss? I understand the trophy room. But not the house.
I need to kill the Spider Boss becoz she has purple pillows and i love Purple?
WoW to me is an Adult challenging game. Barbie like dress up your house is a lame kids game to me.
Nah, you couldn’t be more wrong. Sad that WoW catered their game around Maze + bros.
I think they finally realized that this design philosophy is not making them money.
That is why they’re making big core changes to the game.
You need to adjust your priorities then.
Its not like the current devs are knocking it out of the park with content anyway.
TWW is the most boring, bug filled, and riddled with low quality filler content expansion I have ever played.
I play my character. It has 12 slots. The 12 slots carry my stats that i need to kill the game’s Final Boss. Most of the slots carry what i would look.
Then here comes your House. What does that thing have to do with killing a Boss? We already have the Bank. Your Housing will kill (would become obsolete) all the existing Banks on all cities. It’s just for decoration… like the Barbie dress up game. Oh i need Pink Table from Karazhan. Is that how i would want the game to become? Blizz has to put it on a different game not this one in my opinion.
WoW to me is an adult challenging game. Not a kids game.
Yes, maybe you are, Neo.
I imagine I’ll get a player house or whatever but I’m not gonna spend much time on them myself. I also don’t “get it” when it comes to player housing. For me it’s like, what’s the point? You have a player house and now what…do you pretend to live in it or something? Will my character like get up make the bed make coffee mop the floors I truly do not understand it. I don’t see the appeal. It’s like the Sims, I don’t understand the appeal. When I want to live a productive and fulfilling life in a house or whatever I can just do that IRL. In WoW I want to fight big scary monsters.
I understand that some people will have enjoyment in this, and that’s great and I support them. I personally don’t get it.
MMORPGs are supposed to be about living in a virtual world, not just grinding dungeons and raids. Housing, exploration, social interactions, roleplay, economy, and player-driven content all add depth beyond just combat.
- Encourage player creativity through customization.
- Foster community hubs where people gather outside of raids.
- Provide a sense of personal progression beyond gear scores.
- Enhance the economy with furniture crafting, real estate, and decoration markets.
MMOs that focus only on instanced PvE or competitive PvP lose a lot of what makes the genre special.
The game is about killing powerful monsters… and slaying players on PvP.
Designing your house is not WoW. It’s a kid’s game. It doesnt match WoW.
I can tell you have only played WoW for the last decade, probably longer.
Great song.
I played WoW since Vanilla. And i have Collector’s Edition on all of its Expansions including TWW with its Gryphon statue.
To me, Housing as a game is not WoW.
I’m curious. Do you enjoy story campaigns or would you prefer this to not be an RPG?
What other MMOs have you played?
Fetch games are boring to me. I struggled completing TWW campaign becoz it’s somewhat boring. But i have to finish it to unlock Daily quests which has the rewards i needed to beat hard dungeons.
Most of my leveling came from Dungeons where the action game comes.
This is a videogame. I play this for the game… dungeons, raid or PvP. Not much on story. I enjoyed Molten Core in Vanilla and we didnt care for its story. Just slay all its monsters and ransack its treasures. Thats the game for me.
I am indifferent to the housing thing, but then again that’s just a universal thing for me. I didn’t care about housing in the other MMOs, in crafting survival games I’m the kind of guy that doesn’t really build a base but when it is required I usually end up going with something very basic to cover the minimum requirements.
But that’s just me, I just Express myself through pushing buttons in content or through socializing, the interior design superpower is more of my boyfriend’s wheelhouse.
